A fine selection befitting a yacht owner.
Where did you even find that stuff, Jim? You must be spending too much time on the Internet!

I think Facebook has something to do with Face plant.

Joe - found your slacks for sure ... in a pinch double as a spinnaker

Jim,

Those have to be the ugliest pants that I have ever seen. Oh wait Fred found some that are worse.

Yep, those are the ones, Fred!

I actually found a pair of REI roll-up hiking pants for about $45. They're SPF50, and if they start to wear at the knees, which I know they will since I have to kneel at the base of the mast to reef the main, I'll try patching them.

If we ever go sailing again, that is!

Stay safe, all!!!!

$168 !!! You could not pay me to wear those, not even $168.00 and I am Irish.

Ps. I thought that there was some sort of decency code on this forum :wink:
